- Description
- The air purifier is designed to deliver a stream of purified air into a room. It is drawn through the HEPA filtration system in the base, and the purified air is distributed evenly to the room via the ‘air amplifier’ loop. The airflow can be increased to cool the users as required. The 360-degree filtration system combines activated carbon to remove odours and gases with HEPA, to capture 99.95% of microscopic allergens and pollutants. The purifying function is active when the device is on. This product is sold to the consumer with the filter system integrated; the filter system forms a fundamental section of the finished product. The filter system can be removed and replaced as it can become clogged over time. The products have been designed to function with the filter system in place, and the internal fan & motor have been calibrated to work directly with the filter system to deliver a specific level of air output. This product cannot run with the filter removed as it will cause the product to run at an undesirable noise level, and will draw more power than intended, causing it to work less efficiently. The air purifier comes packaged in a retail box with the relevant instruction manuals.
